Agree! More worse part is that handful of publishing houses control the access to wealth of knowledge. If you want to publish it ask for huge amount of money, but also when you want to read it, you have to pay for it. The peer reviewers chosen are not entirely under your control.
I miss that vibrancy from early 20th century like Eddington vs Chandrasekhar (on existence of black holes) and Einstein vs Quantum Mechanics community (whether God plays dice?!).
